I believe if you are Emerald Status or equivalent (eg QFF Platinum), you get the stated benefits.
Emerald privileges
As a frequent flyer member of one the
oneworld® member airlines, you earn miles and points towards your tier status every time you travel on an eligible flight.
When your top tier status is equivalent to
oneworld Emerald, you are entitled to the following
oneworld benefits, no matter which
oneworld airline or cabin class you are flying:
- Priority First Class or Business Class check-in
- Preferred boarding
- Preferred seating (where offered)
- Priority standby and waitlisting
- Access to more than 550 airport lounges (with one guest) when travelling internationally, including premium First Class, Business Class and frequent flyer lounges, regardless of the class of service flown that day. For details about the oneworld lounge access policy, click here.
In addition to all of the above privileges, Emerald frequent flyers can now enjoy two new benefits:
Extra baggage allowance
As an Emerald frequent flyer you can check in one additional bag for free in addition to your ticketed baggage allowance when you fly on oneworld airlines. If your ticket mentions a weight allowance, you can check in an extra 20kgs (44lbs).
Fast Track at select airports
We know your time is precious and you would rather be in one of the 550
oneworld lounges rather than waiting in line at airport security. That is why, at select airports worldwide, our member airlines have arranged for
oneworld Emerald frequent flyers to access the ‘Fast Track’ or ‘Priority Lanes' at security check points. See below for details and the list of airports where this privilege is available:
